TIPS BEFORE FIRST USE
Unpacking the Gemelli Gourmet Steak Grille
1. Take the unit and accessories out of the box.
2. Keep the wrapping carton and the enclosed padding for the product. Only with this special
packaging a safe transport in case of the unit must be returned.
3. Remove the remaining accessories from the interior of the product.
4. Carefully remove all packaging and check the interior is free from any packaging material. Check
the appliance and especially the heating element and cable for excessive material and trash to
avoid damages.
First Out-of-the Box Cleaning
Before the first use, you should clean the appliance carefully to remove dust and possible packaging &
production residues. Afterward, do a dry-burn (heat the grille) l without food; after the grille cools down,
wipe the inside cavity with a damp cloth to remove any remaining residual remnants. Dry again before
grilling. KEEP THE SHIPPER BOX for future use.
1. Clean all the accessories in warm soapy water and rinse. Dry the parts thoroughly and wipe clean.
Note: Do not use aggressive cleaning agents as they can cause corrosion
2. Clean the outside and inside of the grill with a soft cloth slightly dampened with water.
3. Rub the oven thoroughly to dry.
4. Plug the power cord into a socket with protective contact.
Switch Temperature Display between C and F:
After the product is plugged in and enter the “Sleep Mode,”press and hold the knob for 3 seconds with
one beep and release. Either “C” or “F” will display to show Celsius and Fahrenheit accordingly. By turning
the knob clockwise to switch for °F display and turning the knob counterclockwise to switch for °C display.
Press the knob once to confirm setting. Such setting is memorable and remains the same until different
setting again. (Remark: only operate in “Sleep mode.”)
Part 3: Grille Preparation and Start
1. When setting up, ensure that there is a sufficient distance between the device and strong heat
sources such as hot plates, heating tubes, etc.
2. Avoid heat build-up and place the unit in a well-ventilated area that allows heat used during
cooking to dissipate freely.
3. We recommend using the Grille near or under stove hood with fan-on to help dissipate any
excess smoke. IMPORTANT WHEN COOKING EXTRA FATTY MEATS.

2020.Vol.1.0715.2
4. The minimum distance on the sides and back of the device must be at least 6-8 inches from the
walls, backsplash and cupboards. Above, there must be a minimum distance of 8 inches from
the bottom of the cupboard.
5. During the first use, smoke and odors may result from the burning of care oils. Therefore, pre-
heat the device while it is empty (without food) for about 10 minutes in a well-ventilated room
with the grill and drip tray intact. This process is called a dry-burn and it will burn-off any
residuals used during the manufacturing of this product.
6. Do not place the device in a built-in wall cabinet or in a confined corner. Keep a safe distance
from flammable materials such as cloth curtains, napkins, dish towels or tablecloths.
7. Set the appliance on a stable, flat, heat-resistant countertop which will allow air to circulate
freely under the appliance.

The two cooling fans will turn on for 5-seconds as a self-check and stop automatically.
2. Press Control Knob (see illustration) on the front panel and the product enters stand-by mode.
3. At stand-by mode, by pressing the Control Knob the grille will beep once and you can adjust
temperature setting of the heating element.
4. Increase temperature settings by turning to the right and decrease to the left. The maximum
temperature is 1560° F (850° C).
5. Press the Control Knob to confirm the temperature setting. Temperature reading will flash
when it is under setting and remain still after it is confirmed.

NOTE: The highest temperature of 1560℉(850℃) is potentially dangerous! For this reason, the
maximum operating time per grilling is 30 minutes. Time can be reduced as desired. Caution,
because of the high heat, the longer grilling times may result in overcooked food and fire.
Press the Control Knob to confirm setting and start the grilling process. After reaching the preset
temperature, you will hear a beep and the cooking time countdown will start automatically.
Once the cooking time countdown runs out, the product will beep once, the heating element will stop!
However, the cooling fans will keep running. If you want to continue grill operation, press the regulator
two times. The most recent preset values will be applied, and the grilling process will start again.
NOTE: Cooling fans will start or stop automatically based on the heating element temperature.
Preheating
It is highly recommended setting up the Grille near a highly vented area near or under your stove
vent hood with the fan on to allow any excess smoke to be removed.
The device works most effectively when the entire grill area is preheated. Make sure to also preheat
the Grill/Concave Rack that you plan to use when you preheat the device. Thus, it is advised to add
an additional 3-5 minutes preheating before inserting food to be grilled to obtain consistent grilling
results.
After you pre-heat the Gemelli Grille set the time and temperature for the food that you want to cook.
After reaching the target temperature, start the grilling process again by re-setting the time to grille a
piece of meat from both sides in one grilling process.
Cooking with the Gemelli Gourmet Steak Grille
Usual cooking time is between one and five minutes on each side of the food depending on size of
protein being cooked. Notes on cooking different foods and meats can be found in the "Forms of
Preparation and Guidelines" table in the next pages.
NOTE: ALWAYS INSERT THE DRIP TRAY INTO GUIDE RAIL #7 OF THE RACK HOLDERS
Place the meat on the grille rack and insert it into Guide Rails 1 to 6 of the rack holders (see illustration
below) depending how you prefer the cooking from rare to well done.
